Milton Keynes Central (Avebury Boulevard) hotel

I really don’t understand why this hotel is getting good reviews. The hotel is grubby from the minute you walk in the door, slime and fingerprints all over glass doors and windows. Bar and restaurant looked dirty too, so much that I skipped breakfast. Unhygienic shower curtain, they really are a thing of the past. The upholstery in my room was filthy. I couldn’t and wouldn’t sit on the chair provided to do my makeup. Air con didn’t work, to be fair a member of staff brought me a large fan which got me through the 2 nights. Room was not cleaned and replenished after coming back to room on my first evening. When I mentioned this to staff, they told me I had to pre-book for a room clean! I have no other words, I would never stay here again.

The proximity to the train station is brilliant, literally 5/6 minutes walk and a great service into London. The hotel looks modern. The corridor outside our room smelled like a bedroom that had never had its windows open. It just gave a grubby feel to the place. This was also evident in the room, perhaps because there are no window openings, just air con. Good value for money, but the stale smell … let the place down.

Every member of staff that my elderly mother came into contact was amazing. The food was great and the rooms are absolutely stunning. Such great value and the rooms and all parts of the hotel are clean too.

Great location if you want to stay near the train station. Although this is the furthest Premier Inn from the city centre, it’s a pleasant stroll to main shopping area and there are plenty of restaurants and bars along the way and a huge Sainsburys supermarket literally 5 minutes walk from the hotel. It’s extremely clean and modern and the staff on arrival were very helpful and made it clear they were 24 hours a day if we needed help at any time. The room itself was immaculately clean with good amenities, although a fridge would’ve been handy! However, there was kettle, a very good hairdryer, not the usual mini fans that some hotels supply! A large screen tv with freeview, and excellent aircon that was really easy to and control. Not that people go to hotels to watch telly, but it comes in handy to watch when you’re winding down or getting ready to go out! My only gripe was there were no veggie sausages for breakfast! Otherwise the breakfast choice was fantastic, lots of fresh fruit, cereals, a huge choice of teas and the cooked breakfast was actually delicious! The service was fantastic, I can’t fault the staff and their professionalism throughout the hotel. The location is great if you want to stay somewhere that’s not too far from the centre as it so quiet at night, the only thing I could hear was the faint sound of the odd freight train passing through the station. Would I stay again? Absolutely!
